COBOL applications lead the industry with their application features and functionality, but have lacked a full-featured Windows interface. Not because the COBOL language is inadequate for Windows development, but because the right tool did not exist to allow COBOL programs to fully exploit the power of the Windows
operating system. Now that WOW Extensions is here and the world’s most popular
programming language is integrated with world’s most popular operating system! WOW Extensions provide seamless integration between RM/COBOL and Windows, and full access to Windows capabilities. Now there is no need to look beyond RM/COBOL to build outstanding Windows applications. This capability provides an outstanding opportunity to add specialfeatures to your user interface. COBOL Coding Has Never Been Easier. This visual approach makes building interactive applications a breeze by easily integrating your program logic with Windows
events. Want to execute some COBOL logic when a push button is pressed? Simply select the control, select the event, and enter the COBOL code in the code window.
